Microsoft has released Dial-Up Networking (DUN) improvements as part of
Version 1.1 of the ISDN Accelerator Pack
<http://www.microsoft.com/windows/software/isdn.htm>.

(You can safely install the ISDN Accelerator Pack even if you don't have or
use ISDN, and then delete the ISDN support [under Control Panel |
Add/Remove Programs | Windows Setup | Communications] leaving the
improvements behind.)

Improvements include DUN Server (previously available only in Microsoft
Plus!), optional automatic connection without confirmation, integrated
scripting (and SLIP), and placement of the DUN icon on the Tray rather than
the Task Bar.

Once installed, the new DUN capabilities can be accessed through My
Computer | Dial-Up Networking | Connections | Settings.

(Unfortunately, the improvements do not include a fix for the serious DUN
MTU problem. <http://www.aimnet.com/~jnavas/modem/faq.html#SolarisBug>)
